6:42 pm
temperature. now we're falling back into the 30s, 29 in manchester. you're at 30 degrees. temperatures are below freezing so anything that comes in will fall in the form of some wintry mix. you notice on satellite, clear skies, clouds will build in during the course of the evening. 30 at 8:00. 27 at 11:00. we're back on the news at 11:00. here comes the ice. a damp dreary afternoon tomorrow. a winter weather advisory has been posted for the entire state saying roadways could become very, very icy and we're concerned with that. really to break down, clouds will build rst. light snow and ice developing after the 4:00 hour into tomorrow's commute and it will quickly change to rain from the city points south and east. we do think enough cold air will be in place to allow the ice to hang on longer.
6:43 pm
clear overhead but just about 13 hours outside of town, a mixture of snow, ice and rain so it will start as a brief period of light snow. then getting into rain during the morning commute tomorrow. this warm front delivers milder air by tuesday and wednesday but we're stuck in this cold pattern and that is the division line between the rain, snow and ice tomorrow morning. the clouds tomorrow are going into this morning, early morning hours, then by the morning commute, first the snow and then a period of freezing rain for everything gets over to some rain during the mid morning hours. this is our ice cast model. it shows northern counties getting about a solid say quarter of an inch of ice and that is pretty treacherous especially on 83 heading to york and then the city south, a rain-snow mixture. we break it down for you.
6:44 pm
general sleet to rain scenario for the 95 corridor. south of the bay bridge, all rain, but, again northern counties, this could be a prolonged period of freezing rain and sleet on the roadways so this could be dangerous into tomorrow morning's commute. 27 for tonight. we're dry. things change after midnight. tomorrow morning, a wintry mix going to rain. monday night clears out. around 35. the seven-day forecast, 38 to 53 on tuesday and wednesday. an indication wednesday we may get to 70. we'll go 63 right now and then scattered to strong thunderstorms wednesday into thursday so we go from winter to spring and then back to winter towards the tail end of the week. a little confusing but it is about tomorrow morning's commute and it will be an icy ride. >> i feel like i'm in the twilight zone. >> it is wacky.
6:45 pm

6:47 pm
trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. (blowing sound) ask your doctor about spiriva.
